The best medical writer's claim that the
successful remedy for nasal catarrh must be
non-irritating. easy of application, and one
that will by its own action, reach all the
remote sores and liberated surfaces. The
history of the efforts to treat catarrh during
the past few years obliges us to admit that
only one remedy has completely met these
conditions, and that is Ely's Cream Balm.
This safe and pleasant remedy has mastered
catarrh as nothing else has ever done, and
both physicians and patients freely concede
this fact The more distressing symptoms
quickly yield to it.

Fatal and Destructive Tornado in Indian
Territory.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, Dec. 19.-News
was received here to-day from Cove,
Polk County, of destructive tornado
that visited Armstrong Academy, [. T.,
Fort Washita and Green at an early
hour on Saturday morning, causing
great destruction of property and loss of
life. The following are the casualties as
States army, Washita, killed; A. B. q.
Lincoln, .Washita, killed; Henderson
Jack, Green, killed; Peter Reson, Green,
killed; two children, names unknown,
killed; William Covington, Armstrong
Academy, both legs broken; Henry
Waite, Washita, arm and leg broken;
Mrs. Waite, Washita, arm broken.
A terrific rumbllng sound was heard
about o'clock and heavy black cloud,
funnel-shaped, was seen in the distance,
rapidly approaching. When about a
mile north of Fort Washita it struck the
ground, and from this point south for
miles the work of ruin was continued.
The tornado travelled at about the rate
Of a mile minute. In an instant from
the time it struck the earth, half the
houses in Fort Washita were in ruins.
Light outhouses and dwellings were
picked up and made into kindling wood
by the fury of the wind. Armstrong
Academy was not greatly injured, but
ranchers in the immediate neighbor-
hood suffered greatly.
At Green, little hamlet six miles
south Of Armstrong, the damage was
very heavy and many persons were in
jured. Seventeen houses and general
store were carried away bodily, while
horses and cattle within the territory
covered by the storm king were killed
or manned. The total damage at this
time cannot be estimated as the full ex-
tent of the storm is not known.
The two children killed at Green were
carried about sixty yards by the wind
and dashed to the ground, mangled so
as to be almost unacceptable.
Many cattle and other stock were also
killed by lightning. The storm only
lasted about six minutes at one point.
